Voice of a Generation

"We are the people of this generation, wrote Tom Hayden in 1962, bred in at least moderate comfort, housed in universities, looking uncomfortably to the world we inherit. After college, Hayden continued his activism from the streets of Chicago and Newark and a seat in the California State Legislature. Hes attended ten Democratic National Conventions  six times as a delegate. He authored or edited thirteen books and taught at Pitzer College, Occidental College and Harvards Institute of Politics.

In Denver for his eleventh DNC, Hayden will appear today at 3 p.m. at Cameron Church, 1600 South Pearl Street, to discuss his new book, Voices of the Chicago 8: A Generation on Trial. Tomorrow, also at 3 p.m., political commentator Bill Press will be at the church to discuss his newest book, Trainwreck.
